Dear Pam,

Wow, that podcast was great! Thanks so much. I'm going to record it so that I can play it back whenever I like. You sound as I thought you would sound--smart and sensitive. And, for the most part, I thought the interviewer did a good job with her questions. But listening made me feel even closer to you. I love when you said that what you want to give your audience is understanding and compassion for the human struggles of schizophrenics, and that you want to lessen the stigma against schizophrenics, reduce the fear. I was sitting there nodding my head thinking that I feel the same way. I'm so elated that you're a such a good writer and that you have this talent of being able to translate your experiences, thoughts and feelings into words. Be persistent about getting your poems published in a book. You know what, you could even make your own books for friends and fans and sell them. I got this idea from another site where someone is hand making books and selling them online. I would love to get my hands on a book of your work, made by you. That would be so special.
